These Summer messages are re-broadcasts from our most popular, relevant, and helpful messages that are worth listening to again to stay focused and strong over the Summer as you continue fighting Every Man’s Battle.JJ West and Doug Barnes discuss the biblical concepts of kindness and godly sorrow as pathways to repentance. They assert that self-condemnation and shame do not lead to true repentance, as these behaviors lack a fundamental change in behavior and thought. However, kindness that reflects God's nature invites repentance, and godly sorrow - a broken-heartedness over sin - will lead to lasting change. They explain the importance of community, prayer, and gentle restoration in the healing process.Have a topic you would like to hear? Email us at EMBPodcast@newlife.com and let us know.
